The cleanup wasn't even helping with anything that concerned vlag itself at that point. It helped with saving some bystander kislevite villages.

Alas, there's a Catch-22. Mathilde was only acknowledged as a Dwarf afterwards, and now as a Dwarf is expected to live up to the high standard she set, therefore she can never accomplish a great enough feat as a Dwarf to convince Kragg to part with his secrets.…I still want to know if our braids count as a beard for this.

Ah, but it was a retroactive acknowledgement. Technically speaking, Mathilde was always a dwarf, it just took that sheer level of bullshit for them to see past Ranald's cruel trickery. Which, really, is just more proof that she really is a dwarf, because only a true dwarf's soul would be able to shine through even divine obscuration.

I'd argue that while the cleanup didn't help save Vlag, it did help Vlag stay saved. No telling what those daemons could have done after nomming enough souls to stay coherent in the mortal realms. They could have returned to Vlag and attempted to massacre as many dwarfs as they could have before expiring, but we'll never know because we stopped them from doing something like that.

The thing is they'd have to KEEP nomming souls to stay coherent, and IIRC the distance was already cutting it such that they weren't guaranteed to make it in time if we hadn't stopped them. Going BACK over that same distance would basically put them in the exact same situation that made them have to rush for kislev in the first place, and now the dwarves would've had some breathing room and probably be more dug in as well. Basically, they already COULD attempt to massacre as many dwarves as they could, they didn't try that for a reason.

It was, but alas for Mathilde, Dwarfs don't do retroactive gifts. They'll judge her on her future behaviour, based on the high standards she already set.Ah, but it was a retroactive acknowledgement.

This probably isn't relevant to DL because I'm pretty sure Boney would call bullshit on it so it won't ever be relevant even if we do get it, but in End Times, the Staff of Volans successfully blocks the Runefang Grudge Settler. Friedrich Von Tarnus is Alaric the Mad's greatest rival apparently.
Being fair to Alaric a weapon is not armor, that is a far smaller piece of material to enchant. For instance if someone with a runefang faced off against the Everchosen I bet the Slayer of Kings could parry it even if the Armor of Morkar is not enough to stop it.
I mean, I could see it managing by pure mystical output over design.
E.g a homemade dragster by a teenager supping up his cheap as shit 'car' beating a nice car.
It's just I know which one I would trust not to blow up if you slammed the pedal down.

Armor of Morkar is one of the only items that can mechanically negate the effect of a Runefang, so probably not a great example. Both Armor of Morkar and Slayer of Kings are absurdly powerful artifacts that surpass the Runefangs. They let Archaon fight against Ghal Maraz, which is narratively much more powerful.

It's a completely meta thing made up by Boney. Don't try to exploit it, or it'll stop him from ever posting that stuff in thread.

The biggest I've seen was a vote on a normal turn in august. There was a clear winner, until Boney remembered us that not assigning something to do to a member of Webmat could lead to resentment from them. And we hadn't given Egrimm anything to do. The plan « Plan Don't Ignore Engrim » went from zero vote to winning without contest in record time.

tbh, the murderbowl thing didn't really grab me all that much.
...except, I really really want to know who the 'mystery guest' is.
Like. The curiosity burns.
...maybe it's Anton? Oh! Or one of Wilhelmina's failsons?

Yeah this. Oh look Chaos is looking to spread misery and eventually get an Everchosen rolling to destroy the world. Thats not really a groundbreaking revelation? How many Everchosen have there been by this point? I'd think people might be counting the years and going "waaaiit a moment" too.
